Wow. Things are strange. Every time I make some more progress on my conferences I get upset lately because I don’t want them to be done. Because they’re due *really* flipping soon and once they’re done I’m finished here for the semester…. And I don’t want to be done for the semester yet. Last night was absolutely incredible on a string of different ( Read more... )

I fucking need winter break to be here already. Seriously, these conference papers are just stressing me out to the point where I’ve never been this stressed in my life. Seriously. WTF. As of now I have 15 pages for Understanding Capitalism, 15 pages for A Literary History of Israel and 20 pages for Changing Spaces. I’m worried that they’re all ( Read more... )

Damnit, it's wonderful to be back. Come visit me in my new room - MacCraken 30

Right now I feel so incredibly distanced from Chicago that I can’t even begin to consider the fact that I’ll be home in a few hours. The thing is I don’t really know where home is right now. Earlier today while I was talking to Loreen I just kind of said “I’ll be back home on Sunday” and then realized that I referred to Sarah Lawrence as *home* and ( Read more... )

...and this is the post where I reclaim my livejournal. You muthafukin kidz better be ready for a whole bunch of posts as I plow through this field and rake it all up ( Read more... )

So today I had the opportunity to finally sit back and think about Sarah Lawrence in that I had probably the worst hangover of my life this morning and canceled all responsibilities until 7:30. What is it with this place, then? Sometimes I feel like I’m reading way too much, writing too many papers and overwhelmed in that I have more work than is ( Read more... )

I think I’m like, what, four weeks into college now? Sarah Lawrence, for the most part, is absolutely splendid. Ya, I have bad days here and there but the majority of them have been wonderful and damn, I feel so lucky to be here. It’s strange because the reason I haven’t posted in my journal for so long is because I don’t know how to translate what ( Read more... )

I feel like I'm spinning really fast. I wish I was home. Not home for good, but I wish I was leaving home and only had to drive like an hour or two to get to school. I wish I could spend my last night before college in my bed instead of this uncomfortable pull out couch at the Hampton Inn ( Read more... )

Driving. About 150 miles from New York City. Maybe 120 miles away. Sarah Cardwell won’t let me move in a day early and I swear, if I could move in a day earlier this would all be so much easier. I don’t like big rushes and long lines when I’m really nervous. Speaking of nerves, I broke out since I left Chicago and I think it’s because I keep on ( Read more... )
